He expressed that Ghana has always set an example on the continent for conducting elections.<\/p>\n<p>Referring to the international community and foreign observers&#8217; commendations that judged the election as credible and transparent, he stated that the few challenges should not overshadow the impact of the polls.<\/p>\n<p>He congratulated President-elect John Dramani Mahama for his outstanding victory in the election. He expressed confidence that the President will lead Ghana towards greater prosperity and strengthen relationships with other countries worldwide, promoting unity across Africa and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>The ANC President also praised Nigerians in Ghana for their exemplary conduct during the election.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Before the election, I sent a message that any Nigerian caught misbehaving during the election and arrested would face consequences alone. I am pleased that no Nigerian was arrested for any reason during the election. I salute all my fellow Nigerians,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Chief Asaolu assured that he will continue to ensure that Nigerians in Ghana remain law-abiding citizens. He also pledged to mobilize and attract more Nigerian investors to boost Ghana&#8217;s economy and encourage Nigerians to consider investing back home in Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>Recall that during his acceptance speech, the President-elect assured the country that he and his incoming team would not disappoint the people who had shown so much trust in them, as demonstrated by the overwhelming victory he achieved in the election.<\/p>\n<p>Mahama garnered over six million votes, representing 56.55% of the total votes cast, while his main opponent from the ruling NPP received 41%. According to the constitution, the winner should have at least 50% plus 1 vote, a threshold which Mahama surpassed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chief Dr Bayo Albert Asaolu is President of the All Nigerian Community The President of the All Nigerian Community (ANC), Chief (Dr) Bayo Albert Asaolu, has praised Ghana&#8217;s Electoral Commission (EC) for the successful organization of the country&#8217;s Presidential and Parliamentary elections that took place on Saturday, December 7, 2024.
